Marilyn McCoo "One Less Bell To Answer" Live 

You got that right

And you know THAT. What a WOMAN WOOF! 😆

I was in love with Marilyn McCoo and Tammi Terrel and and a few others when I was 12 and they were 22 or so. So classy. I feel so sorry for the youngins and the degrading and ignorant music that they have to listen to. I remember when I was 12 that I wanted to fight Billy Davis and Marvin Gaye because I wanted their Babes.

@@jf9910 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bull. She's a UNIVERSE !

nowhere near as famous as she should be.................. DAMN..... YOU SAID IT

I've said that many times over the years. Marilyn has one of the finest voices in the busness. I rate her up there with Streisand and others of that caliber.

​@@hossridr1Yes, Marilyn McCoo has a huge vocal range, has been in entertainment since the 1960s, has hosted many television shows, and hosted and co-hosted a television series, "Solid Gold", from 1981 through 1988 where she sang many musical genres including outside her typical genres, and in 2004 co-authored her autobiography with her husband of currently 54 years, Billy Davis Jr. and former bandmate with The Fifth Dimension from the mid-1960s through the mid-1970s. In this performance, she was 65 or 66 years old and still had the expansive range of a much younger singer. On this current day, she turns 80 years old. Happy Birthday, Marilyn McCoo.

WHO said she is underrated???????? One of the best voices in the business and still sounds amazing.

@@57colliegirl Marilyn McCoo is not underrated. She has been a part of the American and world cultural music landscape since the 1960s. She has hosted and co-hosted many television series over the years, most prominently that being "Solid Gold", from 1981 through 1984 and from 1986 through its end of series in 1988. With her husband since 1969, she co-authored their autobiography in 2004. That included a free compact disc of their music that was a bonus to the book. They both have had music albums together, but have been best known for live performances on television and concerts that have shown versatility in music genres, although their best known musical genre is the champagne soul sound that they established as part of the founding members of the original Fifth Dimension in the 1960s through the middle part of the 1970s. As of 2023, they still tour and are active on social media and are on more media platforms than ever.

@@jasonburger3533 I Agree. I didn't say she was underrated. I replied to an above commenter who claimed she was underrated. " Liberty Above All Else," started that thread.

Not quite. This is from a 2009 show, and she was born in 1943, so she's 66. But still, it is a positively overhelmingly great performance for anyone. And to be able to do it at 66 is stupendous.

Maybe she could try a progressive experience and send them away for a week. Then, she could reflect on "What's worse, them or the housework." I, for one, am curious to know.

Well said.

​@@kevinstewart8876Yes, and she just turned 80 years old.

ditto--i'm with you all the way on that -she is stunning ! i'm in love !

Amen!

@@timothymeenan8213 Same

Me too. Join the tragics' club, mate

Me too. Still get chills, watching her.

You're the same age as I am. I remembers listening to her AND the Fifth Dimension.Amazing talented lady and group.

​@@amyreynolds3619She did well as host and weekly performer on the 1980s "Solid Gold" music and variety television series as well.

Yup. She’s amazing all the way around.

U said that Right.. ♠W.G.

This is from 2019 I believe?

@@MrGoldenthroat 2009 .... 40 años despúes y continúa hermosa y cantando maravilloso.....

​@@MrGoldenthroatNo, it says in the info page that it is from a PBS television special, part of the My Music series, and is from 2009, so Marilyn McCoo was 65 or 66 in this performance and just turned 80 years old. She and Billy are on social media and still tour. He is 85 years old. They released a full new album in 2021 and it did well. They have a 2004 autobiography book still sold online and elsewhere as well.

and soooo profoundly deep... and touching...

Her voice is awesome and she never got the recognition she deserved over some like Aretha and Diana Ross, Dionne Warwick. Love her voice!

One less bell to answer Marilyn McCoo this was a request from Abraham

and a damned fine looking lady......

Thats the truth

Ah yes cousin Billy.. ♠W.G.

Thank you. Beautifully said. As a confirmed musical traditionalist, I usually stick to original recordings. But MAN! I love this newer version as well!

@@cjpreach I so love this version. So glad to see Marilyn again after so many years. So heart warming to see Billy Davis a tower of support and strength. True love withstand the tests of time.

Beautifully said. They are quite the team!

​@@khernandez46One of the most successful musical teams in music history and personally as well.

This was from 2009, so she was about 66 at the time. Still, an incredible performance.

@Bentom86 - Indeed. That expression is of a singer that left it all on the stage and gave every single ounce of her soul and spirit. A TRUE PROFESSIONAL

​@@roboque88Yes, she could blow a lot of the younger singers off the stage.

That looked like a statement performance. If anyone doubted, they don't anymore. She don't still got it, she added some. SEVENTY-SEVEN?

Damn I was 14 when It came out time flies

and her high notes... are STILL beautiful!
